A Freebie (4 days) that I have read and recommend (series from a author I follow)

Comet Fall (Wine of the Gods Book 6) by Pam Uphoff

Book Six in the Wine of the Gods Universe

A thousand years ago the gods said a comet had fallen. Nearly everyone had died.

Now a small one is going to hit in six months . . . and a planet killer in eight years.

The young witches and wizards of Ash have a lot to learn, and a lot of growing up to do.Rustle Neverdaut is going to be a powerful witch, if she survives bullies, high society, rapists and her own greatgrandmother.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Comet-Fall-W...dp/B009RYGE1E/

The typos may put some off - the later books are much better because I and other readers have been proofreading and typospotting !

She is very lucky to have your help!

Under Wraps, the first book in the Underworld Detection Agency series, has been slashed to $1.99 at Amazon as a promotion for the sixth book (Under the Final Moon, released last week), but B&N and Kobo still show it at about $5.50.

Note that this is a Kensington title, so it IS promo-eligible at Kobo.

EDIT, 8/13: The $1.99 deal has expired.

I noticed that Amazon was selling a large number of Year's Best Fantasy and Year's Best SF anthologies edited by David G. Hartwell and Kathryn Cramer for $0.99

I saw a number of SF anthologies edited by Jonathan Strahan for the same price.

Kindred
by Octavia E. Butler

is today's Nook Daily Find. It can be downloaded for $2.99

http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/kind...=9780807083703

Below is the blurb
Winner of both the Hugo and Nebula awards, Octavia E. Butler was considered one of the best science fiction writers of her generation. Kindred tells the story of a Dana, a modern black woman, celebrating her birthday in California with her new husband in 1976 when she is snatched abruptly from her home in California and transported to the antebellum South. Rufus, the white son of a plantation owner, is drowning, and Dana has been summoned to save him. Dana is drawn back repeatedly through time to the slave quarters, and each time the stay grows longer, more arduous, and more dangerous until it is uncertain whether or not Dana's life will end, long before it has a chance to begin.

I just wanted to post an update on this. I ended up getting it and it is the release version that's been copy edited, not an advanced reader copy. Good book too, although I'm not completely finished.

This freebie is by Jodi Taylor author of The Chronicles of St. Mary's which many here I think enjoyed.


The Nothing Girl by Jodi Taylor

Jodi Taylor brings all her comic writing skills to this heart-warming tale of self-discovery.

Known as “The Nothing Girl” because of her severe stutter and chronically low self-confidence, Jenny Dove is only just prevented from ending it all by the sudden appearance of Thomas, a mystical golden horse only she can see. Under his guidance, Jenny unexpectedly acquires a husband – the charming and chaotic Russell Checkland – and for her, nothing will ever be the same again.

With over-protective relatives on one hand and the world's most erratic spouse on the other, Jenny needs to become Someone. And fast!

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KFKQE50/

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00KFKQE50/

I suppose a mystical golden horse only she can see lets it count as fantasy.

Crash by Lisa Mcmann is $1.99 [Simon & Schuster] at most retailers. YA fantasy-ish.
https://play.google.com/store/books/...kXklPMoC&hl=en

Quote:
If what you see is what you get, Jules is in serious trouble. The suspenseful first in a series from the New York Times bestselling author of the Wake trilogy.
Jules lives with her family above their restaurant, which means she smells like pizza most of the time and drives their double-meatball-shaped food truck to school. It’s not a recipe for popularity, but she can handle that.
What she can’t handle is the recurring vision that
haunts her. Over and over, Jules sees a careening truck hit a building and explode...and nine body bags in the snow.
The vision is everywhere—on billboards, television screens, windows—and she’s the only one who sees it. And the more she sees it, the more she sees. The vision is giving her clues, and soon Jules knows what she has to do. Because now she can see the face in one of the body bags, and it’s someone she knows. Someone she has been in love with for as long as she can remember.
